Plevna hires Ohana Goats LLC for six-day brush clearing at container site
Summary
The council approved hiring Ohana Goats LLC for six days to clear brush and weeds at the town container site, authorizing a half down payment; multiple payments to the contractor appear in the October claims register.
Water/Wastewater Operator Sam Thielen reported that goats from Ohana Goats LLC had been effective at clearing brush and weeds at the container site and said the provider was available for a short window before leaving the state. Sam raised concern about potential snow drifts if overgrowth is not cleared before winter.
Councilman Kyle Vennes moved to hire Ohana Goats LLC for six days with a half down payment; Councilman Jason Oberlander seconded the motion and the council approved it 4‑0. The October claims check register lists multiple payments to Ohana Goats LLC (entries of $1,312.50, $525.00, $1,575.00, and another $1,575.00) that together reflect the contractor's recent work and the approved arrangement.
The council discussed timing and availability and instructed the clerk to process the payment arrangement consistent with the motion. No additional vegetation contracts were awarded at the meeting.
